Errand

I've just returned from having spent three hours on an errand that, on virtually any other day, might have taken me a half-hour, at best. The snow was just beginning as I left, but quickly became powerful enough to make driving difficult. So I crept along as the snow accumulated on the road, along with everyone else, there and back.

I'm not particularly put off by driving in this sort of weather, though it leaves my wife panic-struck. I certainly don't have a great deal more experience in doing so, and it I hope isn't foolish confidence. Perhaps I'm just a bit more cautious than most.

And the snow certainly does look beautiful.
